Description
Can an illustrated children’s book in rhyme place a child on a path of financial success in life?
Best Day at the Zoo does just that. Written in a fun, rhyming, and rhythmic style, this book is a whimsical story about brother and sister twins who have dreamed of and saved for their day at the zoo with friends. This book offers many lessons on saving, spending wisely, budgeting, and donating. Choices are made along the way. Giraffes with long black tongues that eat from Skye’s hand, lions that roar, and penguins that waddle spark every child’s imagination. A bell ringer’s kettle offers Skye and Rey an opportunity to give to those who have less. This is the first book in the Skye & Rey Financial Literacy Series. Financial skills are presented through a story that children relate to and will want read to them over and over again.
